Promethean

The Kiss of All that Remained

Promethean


Give me the birth of the morning, as I kissed the night 
The fever burned my eyelids from inside 
They talked about the experiment, somebody, somewhere 
From the end of the galaxy to the restaurant seats 
I gazed for a divine vision and I planted the seed 
I kissed the sun, I wanked their genitals 'til the end of the race of mankind 
It ain't what I meant 

The new sun wasn't like the one before 
I mean, it rose above the horizon but I just stared... 
I stood there and the color of red was everywhere 
And I remained even when its rays turned by eyes into useless balls of slime 
I remained when its fiery anger set my hair in fire and roasted my pale skin 
I stayed standing on that very hill, holding in my fist what I had found: 
The kiss of all that remained
